What Makes Long-Term Care Workflows Unique?

Long-term care requires constant cross-team communication and collaboration.

When you walk into your partnering facilities to see your patients, you don’t work in a vacuum. In many instances, there are several interdisciplinary team members tending to your patients as well, providing care in the times that you are not on site. Therefore, everyone needs access to the same real-time patient records, and everyone needs to work together to implement the patient’s care plan successfully. For these reasons, long-term care-specific EHRs like GEHRIMED prioritize easy, automatic patient note delivery. Your workflow relies on your ability to share accurate patient information immediately and work in tandem with other medical professionals to provide top-quality care.

Long-term care practitioners are often their own administrators.

Many medical offices employ administrative assistants to operate the scheduling desk, manage referrals, and more. However, long-term care practitioners often assume these responsibilities themselves. In this sense, they are like an island. Luckily, they don’t have to do every single step manually when they utilize a long-term care EHR that can streamline some of the processes for them. For instance, GEHRIMED includes a handful of tools from scheduling to billing to help capture potentially dropped workflows and keep your practice running smoothly.

So, there you have it — several key components that make your workflow a unique one. What’s more, they clearly justify your need for equally unique software solutions that can help you navigate your workflow with ease. To learn more, schedule a demo today!
